witches

When I was little for some silly reason, I used to believe that witches would fly around the neighbourhood looking into the windows of little kids and if the little kids weren't alseep by 9.30pm the witches would kidnap them and take them away to a place where no-one could save them. I have no idea where I got this Idea from, but If i couldn't get to be bed at night and it was almost or around 9.30pm, I used to close my eyes tightly and pretend I was asleep. It really scared me and I belived it till I was about 11.

I am HUGE Harry Potter fan, and i just turned 11 yuears old, which,fellow Harry Potter fans would know, is the age in which a witch or wizard would go to a witch/wizard school. My friend and i both are waiting for our letters from a special school, i dont need to explain what kind of school. you probably think i am crazy....... but i believe nevertheless

I used to believe that when you flushed the loo, witches would appear to float out from it. Thinking this, I used to flush the toilet and run for my life!

ME!

I used to watch some halloween movies, halloweentown, i think they're called. and I used to believe that i was like the girl, and my mom was a witch, and i was a half-witch, and I had to get trained before i turn 13 or else i'd be a human. So i kept asking my mom if we have extra-secret secrets, or where our family was from(halloweentown?), and about our ancestor's "jobs"(witchcraft?) or if she had any diaries (spellbooks?) from any dead relatives.

i used to believe that when people clipped their toe nails and left it on the floor, it smelled like a witch. so ii would think it was a witches toe clippings. ii would go crazy and ask my parents for a lighter to blow away the witches spirit and stuff. haha

When I was in High School my mom had a friend who was a Wiccan.I didn't understand much about it but I thought it was all about power and so I snuck over to the lady's house from what I saw on TV and movies Wiccans were always teaching teenagers. What I got was a long boring lecture on Ethics and she said I was too young to teach.Boy was I disappointed!Then I thought how dumb I was to think my mom would be friends with an evil witch.

When I was really little, I used to believe that there was a witch that lived under my pillow. If I put my hands there, she would wrap snakes around my fingers. It took a long time before I would sleep with my hands underneath my pillow.

My parents separated when I was 5 and my Mom moved back to PA where her family lived. I was deathly afraid of staying there. I had a dream there when I was like 6 that a blond girl was sitting on a porch step and a mysterious figure floated up and handed her a letter..When the girl opened the letter, she died and immediately turned into a pile of bones. From that night on, I believed it was a witch and she was out to get me and hand me my death-letter. I would keep my bedroom door open and pull all the covers up to my neck, in case the witch came, because in that case, she would think that I was just a head because another witch had come and already gotten the job done.

I was a weird child.

When I was younger I used to believe that if I stuck my feet out from my covers, a "witch" would come and eat them. Weird

I used to think my mom was a witch because whilst sitting at a red light she would always know exactly when it would turn green and I assumed she was doing it with her witch powers. I was dumbfounded for the longest time until I started driving and realized you could glean this information from the walk/don't walk signs.

When I was little, I used to believe that in the night a really nasty old lady who looks like a witch called the Ball Snatcher would come in the night with a shopping trolley and cut off your testicles and throw them into the trolley. I don't know why I thought she would come or where I got it from, but it scared me every night :I

We live near Washington, D.C. and when I was little, my mom used to tell me that Georgetown University was the Wicked Witch of the West's castle (the buildings look just like a creepy, dark castle). She would tell me that if I misbehaved, she would tell the Wicked Witch to have her monkeys fly to get me. Freaked me OUT!

I used to watch a TV show called charmed about three sister witches who were the charmed ones and saved the world.I had two sisters and we all liked a different charmed one so i was completely convinced we werethe Charmed Ones. When one of the sisters, Prue, died, I got really scared for my older sisters life!

i thought that my sister-in-law was a witch. i was only about 5 or 6 at this time so i asked her, "are you a witch cuz ur nose looks like a witch's nose." my dad, mom, sister, and brother yelled at me but my sister-in law said it looked that way cuz she broke it.

I used to think my mom was a witch, because when I misused a toy she would take it, put her hands behind her back, and make it disappear. I lost many toys this way, and even after searching her many times when she did this and not finding my toy, even now that I'm in my teens I still cannot figure out what she did with all those toys.. Maybe someday I'll figure it out!

I used to belive for some reason that a witch lived under the refridgerator and wanted to eat my feet. So at night I would not go up to the fridge unless the kitchen light was on. Also I belived she lived under my bed at night. Why and how I came up with these I don't know.

When I was 3, my neighbor told me she was a witch and she said Godzilla was going to step on my house.
